Everquest Next PS4 release announcement incoming?

Sony Online Entertainment will blow the lid on EverQuest Next at its SOE Live 2013 event on Friday with rumours building that we could receive confirmation that the next instalment of the popular MMO series will be released on PlayStation 4 as well as PC.

With two other huge franchises from SOE, Planetside 2, DC Universe Online, already confirmed for PS4, surely the San Diego-based publisher will make it three MMOs in a row? Furthermore, EverQuest Next has been confirmed as running on the next-generation Forge Light Engine, the same tools that are being used on the PS4-confirmed Planetside 2.

The event will be livestreamed via the SOE Twitch Channel at 8pm BST (12PM PDT) on Friday, August 2, 2013. We’ve got our fingers and toes crossed that it’s good news for PlayStation gamers!
